- Details
- By Cogency Strategic
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Cogency Strategic announced the formation of a new strategic partnership with Heartbeat International and the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB), through which a nationwide series of public service announcements (PSAs) will inform women that life-affirming women’s health centers exist.
For the first time, these messages will point women directly to OptionLine.org, the 24/7 bilingual helpline connecting women to thousands of life-affirming women’s health centers across the United States. These national PSAs will reach women at the moment they need help, connecting them to local care and the hope many never knew was available.
US-Europe Frictions Over Ending War In Ukraine

- By Stefan J. Bos - Chief International Correspondent Worthy News

WASHINGTON/BERLIN/KYIV/BUDAPEST (Worthy News) – Growing frictions between the United States and its European allies emerged Thursday after tense conversations over how to end Europe’s deadliest conflict since World War Two, the ongoing war in Ukraine.
In Berlin, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte sought to keep allies united, saying Europe will see “a shift” in its defense posture as it increasingly must take responsibility for its own security.
His keynote speech followed U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s remarks late Wednesday that he and European leaders exchanged “pretty strong words” during a call discussing his proposal to end the conflict.
Conservative Victories Abound in National Defense Bill

NDAA Hits the Target
Every year, Congress passes the Department of Defense (now Department of War) appropriations bill that funds our military. In addition, Congress must also pass a bill that authorizes policies and sets spending limits for our nation’s armed forces — the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). In recent years, the NDAA has been used as the vehicle for implementing leftist programs that led to significantly depressed recruitment and weakened the strength of the military. This year, necessary changes are being made to repair the harmful military policies of the past Administration. President Donald Trump campaigned on this issue and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has already begun the process. This week, Congress is doing its part by codifying these wins in this year’s NDAA.
Emergency Call to Action for Greenville County
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
I know this is a break from the typical newsletter, but this week, our community learned of the sudden closure of an autism care facility here in Greenville. A shutdown so abrupt that families and staff had less than an hour to respond. It left parents without essential support for their children and left teachers and staff without notice, without pay, and without answers.
You can read the full report here, and thank you to Peyton Furtado for the coverage:

This is a human crisis unfolding in real time, and it requires our immediate attention.
Are American Churches Becoming Pastored by AI?
- Details
- By Joshua Arnold - The Washington Stand

American pastors are becoming increasingly comfortable using artificial intelligence in ministry, according to a 2025 survey prepared by AI company Exponential. According to “The 2025 State of AI in the Church Survey Report,” 91% of ministry leaders surveyed declared themselves “for … the use of AI in ministry work” (up from 87% in 2024), 61% of respondents used AI at least weekly (up from 25% in 2024), and 25% used AI daily (up from 13% in 2024).
Is this increased use of AI positive or negative? In answer to a question about their “perspective on AI as it relates to ministry,” 30% of survey respondents said it was positive, 5% called it inherently dangerous, and 65% viewed it as a “neutral tool,” whose “impact depends entirely on how it’s used.” (Notably, 0% of respondents chose the fourth option provided, which is that AI is irrelevant to ministry — a fact discussed further below.)
Contact the White House and the Department of Health and Human Services to Urge Opposition to Reclassifying Marijuana
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
The marijuana industry is lobbying hard in Washington, D.C. to get the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reclassify marijuana. The Trump administration has not made a hasty decision on this but is still considering the change. They need to hear from us that we oppose making marijuana easier to access.
Marijuana proponents are twisting the facts on rescheduling. While they claim pot should not be in the same category as heroin because it does less harm, the FDA’s scheduling of drugs considers not just harm but the potential for abuse. Even in states where it is legal, marijuana is still a highly abused drug. Legalizing recreational weed has not stopped people from selling it in the streets, manufacturers from lying about potency on their labels, nor has it kept it out of the hands of children. In fact, reports from hospitals show that the rates of marijuana-induced incidents such as psychosis and heart problems have significantly increased in states that have legalized recreational use. Now, 30% of cannabis users have a clinical diagnosis of ‘cannabis use disorder’.

- By Alaina Moore - United Patriots Alliance

Three huge South Carolina legislative primaries wrapped up in November that resulted in a clean sweep of victories for anti-establishment candidates in Lexington, Greenville, and Spartanburg. However, these candidates still have a general election ahead of them scheduled for December 23rd, some facing write-in campaigns.
Former senator Lee Bright won SC Senate District 12 with 50.9% of the vote on October 21, 2025, beating former Spartanburg County clerk of court Hope Blackley and attorney Justin Bradley in the GOP primary for the seat that opened up after the resignation of senator Roger Nutt.
